What's this pimping of Bud as some super coach?
Bucks offensive strategy sucks balls.
Brogdon pimpers too, him instead of DJ Murray?
DK much about the guy but this is 3rd game I've seen him and he blows.
Lowry looks like Steph Curry vs Eric Bledsoe in this series.
Bucks just gave Bledsoe huge extension.
Giannis is kind of trash right now. Can’t shoot free throws and can’t shoot mid range jumpers.
Needs a year or two in the oven still, imo.
Bucks are showing their in experience
Dude is shooting 51 percent from deep
I do. This is gonna make for some good value betting MIL next round.
ECF was always going to be tough, tbh. The 2 best teams (at least record wise) in the entire NBA battling it up.
If the Warriors have to play the finals without KD and a hobbled Iguodala, I give either team coming from the East more than a puncher's chance (provided that Kawhi's leg doesn't fall off if the Raptors make it, tbh).
Well that's something. Bucks strategy is mind numbingly bad.
Yep and now that it's 2-2 the Raptors are ready to go deer hunting. Game 5 is huge if Bucks win they can still win this series, if Raptors win game 5 I like their chances to close Milwaukee out in 6. Raptors could be a tougher opponent for Warriors, they have always had problems with Kawhi, but Bucks will still be a tough out for GS.
Is it a good idea for teams to offer Kawhi a max contract this summer with his injury history? Seems like this will only get worse....The load management will be more and more each year.
Does Bud have the blls to bench Bledsoe for George Hill? Looks like it could be the right move.
I don't think he does but he should. I remember when Kevin Mchale was the head coach of the Rockets and benched Harden and they came back and won that game against the Clippers with Josh Smith of all people. And ended up winning the series.
Bledsoe just ruins the offensive at least Giannis will pass the ball. Bledsoe will take a bad shots or make horrible decisions and act like nothing is wrong. Plus you have to have at least 4 shooters out there with Giannis and considering how they can replace him with Hill and Bogden they don't need him at all. The Bucks also have Connaughton who can shoot 3's, is a better defender, 4 inches taller, has a 44 inch vertical and doesn't make bonehead plays either.
Extending Bledsoe's contract was beyond stupid. All he can do is attack the basket, but he can't shoot to save his life. A point guard that can't shoot in the NBA is a recipe for disaster.
That will never happen. They just gave him a huge extension so him being benched would just the FO look dumb. But they're already dumb in the first place by giving him that extension![]()
It makes a difference ?![]()
It always was a long series to me. I have Mil winning in six.
looks like when Leonard is not main main main man, Toronto can play some ball.
Kawhi locking up Giannis and playing distributor on offence has worked at home.. now they need to see if it works on the road. He's obviously hobbled and i don't think he can get 35-40 a night on 1 and an half legs.
Also Kawhi looks like his leg is about to give way any play.
Do the Raps take a risk and sit him in Game 5 and take the L and hope the 4 day break can make it better for Game 6 and 7. Obviously a huge risk but so is continuing to play through it.
Dude is the best player in the world when he's healthy tbh.
Probably the last series of compe ive basketball this season. So I'm really enjoying it.
Don't get trashing coach Bud at all. Not a single living soul had the Bucks as a #1 seed in the entire league before the season. They have only 1 genuine star who's young and basically is having his first real playoffs run and doesn't know how to shoot yet. They have already overachieved.
Their half-court offense sucks and was always going to suck deep in the playoffs. They have no Durant, no Curry, even no Klay. It's hard for them to create quality shots not in transition. Giannis can't shoot and others are just good role players. But they still have a good chance for the finals.
this series comes down to how the role players and 2nd "star" players (Lowry & Middleton) perform. Home court is huge in this series
VanVleet turns into a sharpshooter while Brogdon and Bledsoe take dumps.![]()
